NOW, his name is even BIGGER. It's no different from what any other boxer or athlete in the US has had to endure. It's a big pond with several more popular sports to contend with...Comment

This is what happens when you go by word of mouth, hang onto every word Hearn says and don't do your own research. Wilder made $20 million for the Breazeale fight. The fight itself was sold out. You just don't understand the US market. It's much more saturated than the UK market.
Showtime matched the DAZN offer for the Breazeale fight and was outbid by Fox for the Ortiz PPV. Wilder made over $20 million for the Ortiz fight and don't forget that the fight itself was partly promoted by his own promotional company, so that's money you don't see. This is what Al Haymon does: helps to make you self-sufficient and your own boss.Comment

If you listened to ppl guessing how many PPV's the 1st two fights were going to sell the estimates sit around 4 million sales. The reality is less than 1 million.
So if they want to go and seriously overestimate the 3rd fight let them. I predict the 3rd will do less PPV'S than the 2nd fight cuz the 2nd was so 1 sided and thats 2 attempts by Wilder and he couldn't win.
But there is no harm in seriously over estimating and using those silly guesses as proof of Wilder being an American mega star cuz it's only guesses and when the event happens we can then laugh at those guesses and the talk of Wilder being a mega star.Comment

Welcome to the United States. After his highlight reel knockout of Stiverne and the dramatic knockout of Ortiz, Wilder has established himself as THE fighter to watch in boxing. He then went on to knockout Fury, decapitate Breazeale and freeze frame Ortiz in their rematch, doing what no other heavyweight has done in the history of the sport, in addition to racking up 10 title defenses.

OK, you win. I can't debate with someone who makes up his own numbers. If you think Wilder got 20 million apiece for the Breazeale fight, with 6k fans and no PPV, and the Ortiz fight, then I cannot debate this. If you ever want to know the true numbers, look them up. Until, then, you will just be an uneducated dumb***** that thinks that Wilder makes as much money per fight as AJ does hahaha. Even though Wilder has yet to sell out an arena and AJ sells out soccer stadiums. So keep up the good work dumbfuccc, your idol will get smashed again and ******asssess like yourself will finally go away. For good.

Ur dilusional Bro....Wilder is the most unpopular Multi-year US HW champ in recent memory!! Tyson, Holyfield, Bowe, Foreman...He don’t even come close! Have yet to see him in a single commercial or movie. Have even seen AJ in underarmor spots here in the States! Wilder should b kissing Fury’s Fat Behind For His 1st Whiff of Ppv and US relevance!! With all his whining, crying and pathetic excuses - Wilder is currently the joke of boxing!! Wilder has come a long way when Stephen A. Smith is clowning u !!Comment

Wilder is one of the most exciting and most explosive boxers in the world right now and all his detractors have one thing in common: they never miss a Deontay Wilder fight. There were 11 million illegal streams of the first Wilder-Fury fight and countless more for their rematch. That double-punch knockdown in their first fight will be never be forgotten, and now that Fury has evened the score, the rubber match will be even more popular.Comment

You can find stuff online to support your agenda, but it doesn't make it true at all. If PBC fighters make so much money, then why are all of them jumping ship to DAZN and Top Rank? Why is the PBC about to go under and Hamon on the verge of selling it? Like I said, you can find articles to fit your delusional argument but the fact is, Wilder was always a bum-beating fraud who got exposed when he fought someone good. That's the reason no one came to see him fight and no one buy the crappy PPV's either. Being a heavyweight champion in America should be a golden opportunity and Wilder should have been able to write his own checks. But he fought bums, avoided the best and pranced around lie he was doing something hahhaa. He was a phony throughout the entire process and guys like you ate it up. but reality came crashing down when he got embarrassed by a feather-fisted Fury hahah. That's the real reason why Wilder refused to fight Whyte and AJ, he knew he would get smashed into oblivion, like he is nowComment
